PIMCO Australia has reported an increase of its assets under management by $5 billion, or 20 per cent, to $28.9 billion over the third quarter of this year.
Australian investors represented $25.3 billion to the total assets.
"The importance of high quality fixed interest exposure is being recognised by a wider range of investors," PIMCO Australia head John Wilson said.
"Increasingly, the demand we are seeing is via the platform network, driven by financial planners seeking the stable capital and recurring income our strategies can produce" said Wilson.
PIMCO sees the high inflows as a vindication for its investment approach.
"The common misconception for some time has been that PIMCO's focus and capabilities were restricted to global, macro themes."
"While our success in this area continues, the performance in our domestic and credit accounts has been exceptional. Pleasingly, investors have recognised this, which has contributed to the strong flows we're seeing into these strategies."
PIMCO said it has has seen strong flows into its pooled fund products, with the Australian Focus Fund having received especially strong inflows from retail investors.
"The feedback we've received is that one of the largest appeals of the product is its simplicity and transparency - which is an important consideration for advisors having to explain to their clients exactly what it is they're investing in," PIMCO head of retail investments Peter Dorrian said.
